10-point pipeline Live Transport Canada data Verified MSRP
How it works

Three tiny buildings.
One honest answer.

Every quote takes the same trip across the lot: in the door, under the scanner, out as a verified report.

Upload the quote

PDF, photo, even a crumpled printout. Drop it at the kiosk and LotCheck reads every line item — the price, the fees, the fine print.

10+ point verification

The quote drives the verification lane: MSRP verification, odometer consistency, open recalls, fee audit, rebate eligibility and more — all against real, sourced data.

Verified report

A polished, professional report grounded in real sources — plus a negotiation leverage score, computed only from the verified findings, that shows where your documented position stands.

Sample report

The receipt, decoded.

This is a real report structure with mock data. Every number is traceable to a live source — no invented "deal ratings", no vibes.

  • $899 "documentation fee" flagged. The provincial typical is $499 — that delta goes straight into your negotiation notes.
  • 2 open recalls found. Both must be fixed free of charge — schedule matters before you sign, not after.
  • Leverage score 8.2/10. Computed from verified findings only — the dealership can't argue with its own paperwork.

What LotCheck does

Data-driven advice for car buyers — before you sign.

Paste any dealer quote or listing. LotCheck runs it through a 10-point verification lane — price against live market data, open Transport Canada recalls, hidden add-ons and fees, financing math — then hands you a plain-English report, a negotiation-leverage score, and the exact lines to say. We work only for the buyer.

We verify

Price, recalls, add-ons and financing — checked against real registries and live market data, not guesses.

We advise

A negotiation-leverage score and a word-for-word script, so every counter you make is backed by data.

We work for you

We don't sell cars and no dealer pays us — LotCheck works only for the buyer.

Our mission

Verify every quote before you sign — so the savings are real, not promised.

That's why every check on this page runs against real government registries and manufacturer data — never assumptions.

Transport Canada recalls

Open-recall lookups run against the live federal registry at report time.

Manufacturer MSRP

The official MSRP is verified against manufacturer data, so an inflated "MSRP" written on the quote gets flagged.

Rebate registries

EV incentive eligibility is checked against federal and provincial programs — the real ones.

Where LotCheck started

The overpayment problem is real. We heard it every day.

Years of honest conversations with gas station customers revealed a consistent truth: the advertised price and the final price are two very different numbers. Buyers were routinely paying thousands more once fees and add-ons stacked up.

$4,000+ Typical overpayment we heard about
$11,000 The worst cases — on a single vehicle
1 price Locked on the lot, analyzed line by line
0 Emotions in our analysis — verified data only

LotCheck locks the on-lot price and runs it against MSRP, fees, and add-ons — turning a confusing purchase into a clear one, and keeping those thousands in your pocket. Verified data, zero emotion — that’s the whole model.
